TIE SHERIFFS.

The Guardians of the Peace Complete Their
Work and Adjour to San Antonio.
Special to the Gazette.
DALLAS, Ten, Feb. 22.-The sheriffs'
convention adjourned this afternoon to
meet again at San Antonio on the second
Tuesday in December next. The follow
ing is brief summary of the principal
business transacted: After lengthy
and general discussion the Browning bill,
now pending in the Legislature, was in
dorsed, as was also the Frank bill. The
Browning bill provides for 'the payment
of actual expenses IN conveying witnesses
attached to grand jury outside of the
sheriff's county; the payment of fees
upon the adjournment of each term of the
District court, and the paying of sheriffs'
expenses IN conveying prisoners from one
state to another upon requisition of the
Governor"
The secretary offered for sale his
GLUE and Cry" book containing some
5000 names of noted criminals and es-
capped convictS, to the sheriffs and other
police officers; and presented each men,
Der of the convention with similar book
containing the names of Georgia Grim
nals.
The proposition to admit constebles to
membership was defeated as unconstitu-
tional.
A plan for insurance or assessment for
the families of deceased members was de-
feated.
The salary of the secretary was fixed at
5000 and travelling expenses to and from
the convention.
In q discussion of tho nr0nriptv of
working short term convicts upon
county public roads, the sentiment was
in favor Of such plan as advisable and
economical.
The following officers were elected for
the ensuing year: President, w. II. II.
Smith of Dallas county; Bryan Marsh of
Smith county, Vice President; j. P. Kirk
of Travis county, Secretary; NJ. NJ. Horns
by of Travis county, Treasurer. The
Galyeston-Dallas News was adopted as
the official organ of the convention, the
vote stand ng, for News, ~; GAZETTE,
2S. The convention was baDqueted by
local committee at Crowdus hall to-
night, and royal good time was had.
In the trial of Mail Carrier Corder to-
day for opening Mrs. BradIey's letter, all
the evidence but served to support the
charge and to corroborate testimony
already introduced. The defense is en-
deavoring to prove that only the post
mark of the letter was shown. But the
facts show the letter to have been opened
before it left the carriers hands. The
circumstances of the tender and accept
ance of the bribe of 500 are not denied.
Cal Mccullough, wanted in Fort Worth,
was arrested to-day by the police.

Railroad RumOre,

The Arkansas Pass Road will be along
after awhile.
Work for your county, and if railroad
wants to run through your land, let her
run.
The Fort Worth Western Railway will
be surveying in this county at an early
date. This is business.
Rock Island Road running north and
south via Breckenridge, Cisco and Brown
woodrow does that sound!
1t is said the Cleburne and Weatherford
branch of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa
Fe is coming to Stephens county for coal
Three railroads contemplating running
through Stephens county-keep still, citi-
zens, Breckinridge only wants two out of
the three, but could take care of more.
1t is said the St. Louis, Arkansas and
Texas Railroad is to be extended from
Sherman via Jacksboro, Crystal Falls and
Breckenridge to q junction with the Texas
aud Pacific at Abilene-this is sense.
1t can be readily seen by going to the
map thst Sherman, Breckenridge and
Abilene are on an sir line, and would be
more than 100 miles the shortest route
from West Texas to St. Louis.
1t is said that officers and stockholders
of the Fort Worth Western Railway will
visit Breckenridge at an early date-we'ye
got the land, wood, water and abundance
of cosl to show them Breckenridge

will be at work on the Commerce Fort
Worth line. That means that
by May or perhaps
by the middle of April the work of grad
Ing the road will be under way, and with
the grading forces only short distance
ahead of them the track-layers will make
merry music as the steel goes down. 1t
would not be surprising, knowing the de-
termination and energy of PresidSnt
Fordyce and his colleagues, if the trains
of the st. Louis, Arkansas and Texas
were running into Fort Worth before
September /.
Colonel Lawrence, Vice-President of
the Fort Worth Western, and Colonel
Morse of the same road will while on
their trip visit, besides Jacksboro, the
cities Of Graham, Throckmorton, Brock
inrldge, Seymour, Albany. Crystal Falls
snG Springtown. The gentlemen will re-
turn, it is said, by the last OF this
week, or early next week in time to meet
the New York directors, who are expect
ed to be in Fort Worth early in March.

roaa in ana near the city of Henrietta is
still raging. W. B. Worshsm, one of the
heaviest claimants for damages, has sued
out 8 writ of Injunction against the
workmen grading the railroad bed to
restrain them from working on his
premises. 1t appears that when an effort
was made to condemn the right Of way
over Mr.. Worsham's land he lodged out
OF the way so that service could
not be had on him, and left
word with Mr.. W. B. Stickney
to notify him by telegram if they COM
menced work over his land. This was
done, and Worsham telegraphed Stick
ney TO order them to stop. 1t was then
taken for granted that Stickney was
Worshsm's agent, and he was then served
as such and the land was condemned,
allowing Worsham damages in the sum
of $3.50, no one appearing in Worsham' s
behalf; after which, Worsham sued out
his writ of Injunction and also appealed
from the condemnation, and upon taking
his appeal work was again COM
menced and the workmen were attached for
contempt of court in disobeying the writ
of injunction. This called forth many
very intricate points of law, the writ hav-
ing commanded the work to stop until
the land had been legally condemned. A
strong contest was had over the matter
before P. NJ. Slime, the District Judge of
this, the Thirtieth Judicial district, almost
the entire of yesterday and up until 10
O'Clock day, when he rendered very
elucidative opinion that the defendant be
discharged. John Stevens of Montague
represented Worsham and A. X. Swan
and Vincent Stsqe represented the de-

Succt ssful Location and Removal of a
Brain Tumor.
NEW YORK, Feb. lS.-The operating
thester of the New York Hospital was
crowded with doctors and medical stu
dents on Thursday last. They had gath
cred from all parts of the city and yicin-
ity to witness the notable operation OF
trephinlng for tumor of the brain. Prof.
Thomas NJ. Markoe of the College OF Ply
sicians end Surgeons, and who, it will be
remembered, was enc of the surg cons
having charge of the case of the late Gen
eral Grant, was the operator.
The patient was young man named
Thomas Brown, the history of whose dis
ease, and the operative measures re-
sorted to, were of peculiar interest 10 the
prominent brain and nerve surgeons OF
this city. Among those present were the
faces, so familiar to college men, OF Pro-
fessors Hammond, Weir, Bull, Stimson,
Glbney and others. The patient was with
in six or seven weeks of being thirty-seven
years of age. Two years ago he was
we'll man-and noted for his sharp
business ability. At that time he COM
menced to have very severe headaches
and symptoms of dyspepsia. His
business was no longer we'll attended to.
He became cross and irritable in his
family, and somnolency, soon afterward
followed by sleeplessness, took place.
These symptoms were soon followed by
epileptic commissions, that became more
and more fri quent and of increasing
severity. At the time when first
seen by Professor Markoe he was
having as many as twelve fits q night, and
was suffering constantly with an agoniz-
ing headache At times his speech was
much affected, but not at any timswas
he out of his reason between the attacks.
Every symptom WAS carefully nofed, and
after a consultation with several promi !.

diagnosis was made of tumor of The brain

Wise Florida RuzZards.

On the coolest morning OF our late dis
agreeable spell of weather the fishermen
built large fire on a point projecting
into the river from East Palatka, and,
after warming themselves, went on with
their fishing and left the fire burning.
Returning after time, they were sur
prised to see group of some fifty or
sixty buzzards standing about the FIRE,
kicking up all sorts of antics. Not under
standing such proceedings, the boats
were rowed up pretty close, and the &C
cuDants watched the birds for some time.
1t was very cold morning, and the
birds would stand. with one side to the
fire until it was warm, and then they
would deliberately turn around and warm
the other side. Those on the outside Of
the group would get so eager to get
within the warmth of the fire that they
frequently crowded the birds on the inside
nearly into the flames, and the struggle
was waged fierce and bitter for advan-
tageous positions.

amount of business in its yards now and
with second road added and the extern

The receivers of the Texas and Pacific,
it is stated, have determined not to stop
the work of improving the RIO Grande
division after steel has been laid to Col
orado City, but portion of the steel
lately purchased by Governor Brown is to
be used west of Colorado. Before 1887
Receiver Brown will have the entire road
in magnificent condition.
In discussing the effects of the inter
state commerce law the fact is too often
lost sight of that the law applies only to
transportation from one state or territory
to another state or territory, or from
place in the United States TO another and
adjacent foreign country. Transporta-
ton wholly within one state or territory
is entirely excluded by the terms OF the
act.

GAINESVILLE, TEX, Feb. 22.-While
Felix Johnson, pupil of the South pub
lie school, was walking in the school
ward his foot struck some object which
exploded knocking him senseless. He
was picked up by his schoolmates and
carried home, and it was several hours
before he regained consciousness. The
young mans statement is that he was
walking through the yard when his foot
struck something that exploded
with loud kissing sound, en-
veloping him in fame and knocking
him down. One of his schoolmstes
states the fame was as high as young
Johnson's head, and upon examination 1t
was found that the boys hair and eye
brows were singed, and his
face, chin, right ear, right hand
and arm were considerably burned.
Nothing was left to designate what
caused the explosion, and many think it
was small dynamite bomb or Internal
machine placed there by some misChiev-
